It's amazing the skepticsm that surrounds Bernardini because people don't like the hype, yet DC receives as much hype and no one has a problem with that? Why is it that everyone seems to assume the Sheikh feels that DC is better than Bernardini, as if it would be far-fetched for him to think the opposite.
I never said that. I believe that both colts are overhyped.

Overhyped? And who exactly do you think is justifiably ranked? Andromedas Hero?

If Bernardini and Discreet cat dont do it for you, who does?

Not a single one, right now. I'm more impressed with Lava Man than I am either one of those two. I'm not arguing that both Bernardini and Discreet Cat aren't talented horses, but do they both REALLY deserve the crowns they're being given right now? Bernardini has what, 6 starts? Discreet Cat, 5? Come on Gander...

Excuse me for not wanting to annoint two lightly raced colts who (with the exception of a very suspect UAE race) have beaten hardly anybody...

Yes, I appear to be the only one impressed with these 2 horses. Please. I am the biggest Lava Man in NY but to be more impressed with him than Bernardini? Were you impressed with Flower Alley last year?

Nope, never liked Flower Alley at all, actually. And I definitely don't think you're the only one impressed with Bernardini and Discreet Cat. On the contrary, I'm the one who looks like an idiot for not being sold on either one of them YET.
